Intestinal obstruction an uncommon complication of biliary ileus: a case report

Biliary ileus is a rare entity in our setting despite the high incidence of cholecystitis in the Mexican population. Currently, the treatment for those presenting with intestinal obstruction is surgical. Although there are many management options, it should be individualized according to the patient, symptoms, and their hemodynamic status. In this case report, we present an approach to management in a hemodynamically stable patient, who showed appropriate postoperative evolution.
